The Windows Defender is surprisingly good, if you are smart and know how to use the internet. Pi-Hole blocks all the ad networks which is where the bad stuff comes from now a days. I run that at the house; at work we use a Trend Web Proxy that I have dialed in pretty well. NoScript is a must any more, good choice on that. Avast and AVG just merged. Not sure how I feel about that honestly. AVG became a bloated mess that is not worth the price any more. Techradar runs a yearly antivirus roundup, as does Maximum PC (but they have gone a bit downhill lately). I use Bitdefender, not had any issues yet.
